100%-40%=60%
60%=180
100%=? 180*100:60=300$ c)
Answer:
$300
Step-by-step explanation:
If the phone has a discount of 40% that means it cost 60% of the original price
X= original price (100%)
$180 = 60% of the original price
X = 100%
CROSS MULTIPLICATION
60X = 180×100
60X = 18000
Divide both sides by 60
X = 300
